6.  The neighbour lodged a separate action, seeking division of the joint land plot.
7.  On 26 October 1994 the Adler Town Court (“the Town Court”) granted the neighbour’s action. That judgment was upheld on appeal and became final on 7 February 1995.
8.  On 10 February 1995 the Town Court gave a judgment in the case concerning the applicant’s action, granting it in full. The judgment was not appealed against and became final.
9.  In April 1995 the applicant, relying on the judgment of 10 February 1995, lodged an application for review of the judgment of 26 October 1994 on account of the discovery of new circumstances.
10.  On 1 June 1995 the Krasnodar Regional Court (“the Regional Court”) granted the application, quashed the judgments of 26 October 1994 and 7 and 10 February 1995 and authorised a re-examination of the applicant’s and the neighbour’s actions in joint proceedings.

It appears that the expert report on the land was prepared on 1 October 1998 and sent to the trial court before 15 December 1998. According to the Government the delay in the conduct of the expert examination had been caused by the parties’ failure to pay the expert’s fees.
